With the advancement of globalization and the deepening interlock between cities globally, the research on urban culture and creative development should be expanded from a single city scale to regional and urban agglomeration scale. Creative clusters will become an important spatial scale to break the bottleneck of urban development in the future. In Europe, cities such as London, Paris, and Milan have developed creative industries and built creative clusters relatively early, and hence they gradually become global creative centers. However, there are few studies on the development of their creative industries from a regional perspective. This research uses multi-source data within the scope selected and based on comprehensive standards, to analyze regional development characteristics of creative industries in Milan, creative clusters formed with Milan as its core, and influencing factors of its development. Through the study of a global creative center from a regional perspective, references for emerging creative cities and those that require industrial transformation can be achieved.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
